Section 1451 of the Better Utilization of Investments Leading to Development Act of 2018 ( 22 U.S.C. 9671 ) is amended by adding at the end the following: The Corporation shall not implement or enforce any rule, regulation, policy, procedure, or guideline that would prohibit or restrict the source of energy used by a power-generation project the purpose of which is to provide affordable electricity in an IDA-eligible country or an IDA-blend country. The Board of the Corporation shall not, whether directly or through authority delegated by the Board, reject a power-generation project in an IDA-eligible country or an IDA-blend country based on the source of energy used by the project.
The Corporation shall promote a technology- and fuel-neutral, all-of-the-above energy development strategy for IDA-eligible countries and IDA-blend countries that includes the use of oil, natural gas, coal, hydroelectric, wind, solar, and geothermal power and other sources of energy. In this subsection: The term IDA-eligible country means a country eligible for support from the International Development Association and not the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development.
The term IDA-blend country means a country eligible for support from both the International Development Association and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development. .
